The structure and location of Montrose Port brings customers a flexible and accessible service which is distinctive to Montrose.

Being a smaller port with all the comprehensive facilities and expertise of larger ports means that Montrose Port can offer an agile, hands-on service with direct 24/7 staff access, all at competitive rates.

With around 1,000 metres of quayside on both the north and south side of the harbour, Montrose Port provides a sheltered haven almost half a mile long. Facilities include water berths to a depth of 8m, 130,000m² of open storage, 42,000m² of warehousing and over 2,000m² of office space on the quayside estate. Montrose Port is currently developing Montrose Port Industrial Park, two miles north of the quayside estate, offering prime opportunities for marine, energy and logistics businesses particularly those that work within the renewable energy supply chain.

Montrose was also the first port in Scotland to provide shore power to supply vessels working in the offshore energy industry, helping customers reduce emissions while alongside. Affordable layover rates allow vessels to remain in port as long as needed to mobilise or demobilise, with the freedom to choose preferred stevedoring or fuel suppliers.

As a trust port, all profits are reinvested into the local community and into upgrading infrastructure and facilities, ensuring competitive rates and enabling tailored, innovative solutions to meet every customer’s needs.
